Post by goguWell, it seems that it's final!
Fyrom *WILL* accept a derivative name with geographical determination!
"North Macedonia", Upper Macedonia" and/or similar.
I wonder what will have to say now GaVlina, "Krater" and the rest of the
nationalistic idiots (Andy included);-)
"We will never (sic!) abandon or change our constitutional name RoM" bla bla
bla;-)
Have a nice day!
PS
Fyrom-ians, remember Alamo...eeeer....Osetia/Georgia;-)
<<<Gogu,
My personal view is that Greece should not block FYROM's membership into
NATO, >>>
You are crazy. That makes Greece into a servant of the USA and shows its
weakness.
<<<Agamemnon,
Perhaps I am crazy!
Hoped that someone would weigh more my second part of the statement, than
the first part.
Time will show if I am crazy or not.
Stability in the Balkans is of prime importance.
Greece can make a step back, let FYROM become a NATO member, contribute to
the stability of the region and have accession of FYROM to EU as the main
weapon, for which USA cannot do much, in contrast to NATO. >>>
BOLLOCKS! NATO does not contribute to stability in the Balkans or anywhere
else. It is a cause of instability by promoting and perpetuating divisive,
aggressive and anti-Greek US foreign policy.
<<<Afterall, FYROM gets whatever they want from the US, either they are in
NATO or outside. >>>
WRONG!
With FYROM out of NATO then FYROM will break up between Albania, Bulgaria,
Serbia and Greece. This is to Greece's benefit since it leads to the
solution of the FYROM problem.
With FYROM out of NATO the US does not get what it wants and therefore has
to do as Greece pleases. If FYROM is in NATO then FYROM will have what it
wants, the US will have its bases to destabilise the Balkans from, and both
will be more anti-Greek than ever and Greece will loose a bargaining chip
for concessions.
<<<Accession to EU hurts them badly. They will realize it some day.>>>
In other words the Fyromians care more about NATO and the arms it will bring
for them to control their minorites and don't care about the EU at all. All
the more reason to deny them membership of both.
Post by PanayiotisGreece should invade FYROM for making claims to Greek territory and slice it
up between Albania, Serbia, Bulgaria and itself. Problem solved.
<<<Agamemnon,
Do you still believe in fairytales?>>>
Did you miss Russia invading Georgia with even less provocation?
All the Fyromians have is about a dozen old Russian tanks that are barley
serviceable. Invading and dismantling Fyrom will be a walk over.
Post by Panayiotis<<<but we should NOT allow it to become an EU member before it shows, by its
behavior, its respect and fullfilment of the prerequisites of EU for good
neighborly relations, especially with Greece. >>>
<<<Good neighborly relations towards all of its neighbors. Don't forget that
both Bulgaria and Greece are EU members and FYROM does not have the best of
relations with either one.>>>
All the more reason to dismantle it. FYROM has not right to exist.
